Went on to check 07310 MFP-VSG Summer Special at Karmali. Surprised to see the loco link a Pune Based WDG-4 #12461 long-hood EMD, no Electric Traction provided. No TB too on this one, it had a Clear Green Signal at Karmali on the main line and on the loop line 22114 KCVL-LTT waiting for the crossing but someone from the passengers did ACP and train came to stand still for 10 minutes on the main line. Overall, very unacceptable service for such long distance Special Train LHB rakes with no Pax Loco and no priority from DDU to KYN added almost 1 hour delay at every station in between. Now waiting for rake reversal at MAO from 44 minutes.

This train is a cruel joke on passengers. Controllers should have some degree of accountability in case trains run horribly late like this one. Better that Railways did not even run this train. In case of a holiday special in my opinion 4 to 5 hours of delay is acceptable but this is ridiculous. Overcrowding plus hot weather no pantry food it must have been hell of a journey for the passengers.

While I was talking pictures one of the general passengers asking me is there another train that will reach Madgaon faster than this 😂😭, i was like don't worry it will reach Madgaon in 30 minutes your wait is over. Yep, one hell of a journey for passengers in hot summers waiting patiently for their destination to reach.

Ac coaches were at the end before General Coaches. Couldn't find much rush in any coach including general it was almost empty I think most of the them got down at Thivim and very few at Karmali when the chain was pulled. Maybe there isn't much rush from returning journey (07310) but it will be fully occupied for sure, however if you compare 12741 vs 07309 in both up and down journey for the occupancy part WL is more in 12741.

So as expected the train got delayed a lot and Vasco-Patna is just 30 kms away from catching it up at this point of time. Anyways being late is not a concern for a special train. May be slots issue are there.

Yep, the special train is given very bad priority I don't know why maybe because of other normal daily trains and as well as special train from other zones too clashing on already overburdened lines might be the reason. However 12742 still given good priority commendable coverage of time by Patna-Vasco and now in KR Line almost on time. I don't see the possibility of 07310 reaching Vasco before 12 pm it will be heavily regulated for crossings or even OT in KR.

Indeed pathetic service, better they shouldn't have run this crap. Understable holiday special train it will be late obviously people can handle max 6-7 hours delay more than that everyone gets frustrated. Poor Handling 🤔.
